Method for monitoring exercise session with multiple schemes

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for monitoring an exercise session of a user. The exercise session comprises a first portion and a second portion following the first portion. Provide an exercise record of a previous exercise of the user, wherein the exercise record comprises a first exercise correspondence associated with a first fitness condition of the user. Execute a first exercise scheme to monitor the first portion of the exercise session based on the first exercise correspondence. Execute a second exercise scheme to monitor the second portion of the exercise session based on a comparison of a second fitness condition of the user derived from an exercise data in the first portion of the exercise session and the first fitness condition of the user in the exercise record of the previous exercise.
